From 11:00 until 20:00 hours the volcano had 25 eruptions of low to moderate intensity, and these were accompanied by water vapor, gas and small amounts of ash, reported the National Center for Disaster Prevention (Cenapred).

Between 16:35 and 19:51 hours, took five of the most important eruptions, which were accompanied by intense pulses in gases and ash plume that reached up to a kilometer high.

In addition, the system recorded a flow of lava and ash in small amounts, which was detected at the stations located on the top of the volcano however do-not mention any serious consequences.

Unlike previous days, and even the report from 11:00 hours on Thursday, from 17:00 hours today, they have had visibility into the crater.

There is a continuous and thick plume of steam and gas, which rises 200 meters to one kilometer above the crater and moves to the southwest. No reports of the presence of ash.

In the report at 20:00 hours, the Cenapred reiterated the call to the inhabitants of nearby villages to remain vigilant of the reports of the authorities, as set out in Phase 3 of the yellow in the Volcanic Traffic Light Warning.

Cenapred reports that the giant had 35 eruptions in the last 24 hours, accompanied by steam, water and gas and minor amounts of ash

PUEBLA, June 1. – The Popocatepetl had 35 eruptions accompanied by steam and gas and minor amounts of ash, during the last 24 hours, according to the National Center for Disaster Prevention (Cenapred).

Also, the federal agency said the vents registered at 03:17, 05:10 and 6:50 hours, as containing large amounts of ash, reached on average a mile high and headed southwest.

Between 11:00 and 21:44 yesterday, recorded 9 hours of high-frequency spasmodic tremor and from 08:00 hours on Friday, started a new episode of high-frequency spasmodic tremors and also had segments continuous tremors for 2 hours totaling approximately one hundred.

At night, he added, it was observed a slight glow above the crater of the volcano and at the time of this report (11:00 hours), the gas plume was diffuse, between 100 and 300 meters above the crater rim and goes west and southwest, toward Tetela Volcano.

Therefore, it was reiterated that the volcanic alert level remains at Yellow Phase 3, which implies the probability of observing the following scenarios:

“Explosive activity of intermediate-scale with high dome growth and possible expulsion of lava, explosions of increasing intensity and raining ash on nearby villages noticeable in smaller quantities and more remote populations, depending on the direction of the winds.”

Reported a further increase in the intensity of tremors, accompanied by a column of gas and ash, which reached 4 miles high

PUEBLA, In the last 24 hours, the activity of Popocatepetl “was quite high,” the National Center for Disaster Prevention (Cenapred), reported that at 19:00 pm yesterday it registered an increase in seismic activity of the tremor, which was accompanied by a persistent column of gas and ash, which reached 4 km above the crater and was dispersed by prevailing winds to the northeast.

In the report of this afternoon, also highlighted the eruption of incandescent lava fragments, which spewed down the slopes of the volcano, reaching external distances up to a mile, “this activity lasted until 21:56,” he said.

At 1:12 am this morning, the volcano showed “another important eruption, again with incandescent lava fragments” and with a plume of two miles high, consisting of gases and ash, according to official data.

In this sense, the Cenapred announced that at 4:16 AM another episode of tremors began, with eruptions and expulsion of lava fragments, which ended at 7:02 this morning.

In total, the federal agency noted that in the last 24 hours there were a total of 63 eruptions of small and medium size, not including trains mentioned.

The volcanic alert level Phase 3 is yellow, which means the chance of observing the following scenarios: medium-scale explosive activity at high, dome growth and possible expulsion of lava, explosions of increasing intensity and rains ash on nearby towns notorious and in smaller amounts in more remote populations, depending on wind direction.
